ABSTRACT:
The present invention involves tomatoes which are substantially seedless. The tomatoes of the present invention are made by crossing a tomato plant containing at least one parthenocarpic gene as the male parent with a male sterile tomato plant containing at least one parthenocarpic gene as the female parent. The tomatoes resulting from this cross are substantially seedless.
